If you currently have single glazing windows installed throughout your home you will probably be only too aware of the issues that come along with them, one of the main ones being the lack insulation. Having just one single pane separating the inside of your home from the outside isn’t going to work well against keeping your property nice and warm, as your heating will just be able to escape through the glass. This is a big problem for much of the UK thanks to the recession, as many people are now facing higher energy bills as it is. With single glazing windows you might feel the need to turn your heating up in an effort to make your home warmer, but this will just cause you to lose money in the long run. To begin saving money instead you should switch to double glazing windows as soon as possible. These windows are fitted with two thick panes of glass (hence the name) that is separated with a sealed layer of air so as to stop heat from escaping through the glass. You can also get triple glazing that can increase insulation by a further step, or you could opt for double glazing that uses the argon instead of air between the two panes, as this chemical element is an effective thermal insulator. All double glazing complies with FENSA regulations, but this argon filled glazing can make your home up to three times more energy efficient. It isn’t just energy efficiency that double glazing can bring to your home though; it can also make it more secure. This is because burglars most often target homes with older doors and windows as they know they will be easier to break down, whereas modern uPVC double glazing doesn’t smash easily and can’t be prised open or kicked down. So, instead of simply relying on your burglar alarm you should fit double glazing throughout your home to stop burglars from taking an interest in your property. The other advantage to double glazing is that it can be much more attractive than single glazing windows, as you can choose from a wide range of styles. Many vintage styles are included in window company collections, so even if you own a period property you will be able to update it without ruining its character.
